darkening dreads and hiding lint in dreadlocks with tea

Well, I'm not too sure... Errm I'd say a few washes It only darkened it a tad bit, so it went back a normal colour instead of this weird fake grey :P You can see in my pics that the blonde bits are back blonde now, but compared to how they used to be it seems to have kept them a tad darker I used like 2 cups of tea basically. If you do it let me know, would love to know how it goes :D

That actually sounds really pretty! How long does the tinting last? It must wash out eventually...? And how much tea do you use? I've never heard of this before.

yeah I did this once, because I had previously bleeched my hair and decided I wanted my natural hair colour back so I used a dark brown dye on the bleeched hair to see if it would work and it went grey! So I washed over some black tea and went a ash/dark blonde I'm thinking of doing it again to see if the blonde will totally come out cause now my dreads are like half brown half blonde :P

dreads and jobs

dreads jobs employment issues

I've just found out I got a job as a community networker/librarian and they didn't seem to mention my dreads at all! This is only an apprenticeship, and only for a year but it's still a job I don't have to change anything about myself and I am welcome there! :D
